32+Ac Johnstown Rd, Chesapeake, VA 23322

Why this home stands out

Raw acreage at this scale is genuinely hard to find inside Chesapeake city limits. At 32.55 acres, 32+ AC Johnstown Road gives you room to think big — whether that means a working farm, a multi-generational compound, an equestrian property, or simply land that stays yours and stays quiet. No existing structure means no compromises: you design the layout from the ground up.

PLEASANT GROVE and the Chesapeake real estate market

Pleasant Grove sits in the northwest corner of Chesapeake, where the city's suburban energy gives way to wider lots, mature tree lines, and a noticeably slower pace. It's one of those pockets where neighbors still wave from the driveway and the roads carry more tractors than traffic. Chesapeake itself is the second-largest city by land area in the continental United States, and that scale means northwest Chesapeake has preserved a genuinely rural character that other Hampton Roads cities simply can't replicate. City services and infrastructure are still accessible — you're not trading convenience for land — but the day-to-day feel here is closer to countryside than suburb. For buyers specifically hunting northwest Chesapeake VA homes for sale with acreage, Pleasant Grove consistently delivers on that promise.

What's nearby

Johnstown Road puts you within a practical drive of everyday needs without sacrificing the open-land feel.

USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is roughly 12 minutes away, and Norfolk Naval Shipyard is about 22 minutes out.
